"Though BGP supports the traditional Flow-based Layer 3 Equal Cost Multi-Pathing (ECMP) traffic load balancing method, it is not the best fit for a RoCEv2-based AI backend network. This is because GPU-to-GPU communication creates massive elephant flows, which RDMA-capable NICs transmit at line rate. These flows can easily cause congestion in the backend network."
